81. 80 Conventions
Sikong Jin noticed that there was something unusual in the person on the bed, and he withdrew his gaze from the door.
"Are you awake?" Sikong Jin asked softly.
Feng Ling'er knew that Sikong Jin's martial arts were very high, and she no longer forcibly pretended, but opened her eyes leisurely.
He still looked so refreshed, without the slightest bit of fatigue, and the concern contained in his starry eyes warmed Feng Ling'er's heart.
Why does such a man not belong to him? Why didn't you stick to it in the first place? If she insisted, then she would be Princess Ryan now! And not a princess who died of her husband.
The second prince and the eighth prince are gone, and now the most likely to inherit the treasure are Sikong Jin and Sikong Jue. The two of them are brothers, and Sikong Jin's leg has also healed, and he has always been favored by His Majesty, and his victory is much bigger than Sikong Jue.
Once he is crowned the crown prince, it will be his wife who will become the queen mother in the future!
Why is that damn ugly monster that she is so blessed than herself? No way! The man in front of her belongs to her, he was and will be! The eighth prince is dead, if she doesn't catch Sikong Jin again, how will she live in the future? She is the pride of the Fengfu, not the laughing stock of the Fengfu!
"Now that you're awake, let's eat something first." Sikong Jin saw Feng Ling'er staring at him with a pair of blank eyes, so he said softly, "The medicine is already boiling, it should be boiled soon, eat something first and then drink the medicine, your body will be better." β
"What do you care about me?" Feng Ling'er sighed softly, "Wouldn't it be better to let me go like this?" β
"What nonsense!" Sikong Jin's eyebrows stood and he scolded softly. "Don't even think about that mess! This king said that he would take care of you, you can rest assured! No matter what happens in the future, this king will protect you for the Eighth Emperor Brother! β
For him? Ha! Feng Ling'er sneered in the bottom of her heart.
Well, for him, for him, she doesn't believe that in time, Sikong Jin's heart will not return to herself. Not only did she have to hold on to Sikong Jin tightly, but she also had to get rid of that ugly monster! Anyone who stands between her and Sikong Jin must be eliminated.
Even if Sikong Jin can ascend the throne as the emperor in the future, the woman who can stand by his side can only be himself!
Feng Ling'er slowly opened her eyes and looked at Sikong Jin with tears in her eyes, "What the prince said is true?" She was already delicate and delicate, and her tearful face like a white lotus was pale and bloodless, but it was even more pitiful.
She knew from which angle she would be more beautiful, she turned her head slightly sideways, and looked at Sikong Jin pitifully.
She was quite confident in her appearance, and she didn't believe that the ugly monster would attract more attention than herself. She admits that Suri exudes a pretty good temperament, but the ugly scar on her forehead is enough for her to be incomparable. Moreover, the royal family of Hu has had an ancestral system since ancient times, and those who have a damaged appearance cannot be the queen. Even if Sikong Jin ascends the throne in the future, it will be impossible for Su Rui to take charge of the Phoenix Seal.
yes, why didn't she think of that just now?
Just like Sikong Jin's leg disease at the beginning, a person with a disability cannot be made a prince, but now that his leg is better, the second prince and the eighth prince are gone, and the position of prince will be his sooner or later! Su Rui has a scar on her forehead, even if Sikong Jin ascends the throne in the future, she cannot be crowned as a queen, at most she is an imperial concubine. In this way, you have a big chance of winning! As long as she can stay by Sikong Jin's side, the queen's position is still hers!
"When did this king break his word?" Sikong Jin said softly, "Don't think about it so much. Don't be too sad, your body matters. β
Feng Ling'er nodded weakly, seeing Feng Ling'er like this, Sikong Jin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He was afraid that Feng Ling'er would not be able to accept this fact for a while and that there would be no longer any strengths and weaknesses, but now that she nodded, there should be no more messy thoughts.
Sikong Jin stood up, his sleeves tightened, he lowered his head, and found that his sleeves were pulled by Feng Ling'er again.
"Where is the prince going?" Feng Ling'er looked at Sikong Jin in a panic.
"Rest assured, they will take good care of you. I have something to get out for. Sikong Jin said with a smile.
"You're going to leave me?" Feng Ling'er's voice trembled.
"How so?" Sikong Jin smiled, "Don't worry, I'll come back to see you in a while." β
Feng Ling'er slowly let go of her hand and let Sikong Jin pull out his sleeve.
She knows that many things are in a hurry, so she can only take her time, it doesn't matter, she has a lot of time.
Sikong Jin turned around and instructed the palace maids and maids waiting in the room to take care of Feng Ling'er carefully. He also ordered someone to send some easily digestible hot porridge and side dishes, and told Feng Ling'er to eat a little.
Her stomach was empty and she was sick, and she couldn't support it if she didn't eat.
After everything was arranged, Sikong Jin walked out of the room quickly.
He ran to Suri and found that she was not in the room, and asked the guard at the door, who said that the princess was in the stable.
Sikong Jin was very curious, how could she go to the stable?
When Sikong Jin arrived at the stable, he found that there were many people around the door of the stable. It took a little closer to see that they were gathered around a carriage in front of the stables.
Suri was holding a piece of paper for everyone to compare and demonstrate.
"If the wheels of the car are replaced with iron plates like this, the car will run much better on the snow than on the wheels." Suri said. "It's not easy to slip and it's easy to steer. The wheels will sink into the snow and get stuck in them and won't be able to pull them out, but this one won't. It will take a lot less effort for the horse to pull it up. β
"How long will it take to build this?" Su Rui held up the picture and handed it to a man who looked strong next to him.
The man took the picture, "If you go back to your mother, it's not difficult to create this." Two days is fine. He said after reading it.
"Yes. Then try to build it as quickly as possible. The carriages here are all fitted with a pair. Suri nodded.
"What are you doing?" Sikong Jin walked over and asked slowly.
"See the prince." Only then did everyone realize that Sikong Jin's cunzΓ i, and they all got out of the way and knelt on the ground to salute.
"Lord Wang." Su Rui also lowered her head and saluted, and just as she was about to bow down, her arms were pulled by Sikong Jin in time.
Su Rui raised his eyes and met Sikong Jin's eyes, and there was a faint smile in his eyes.
"What are you doing?" Sikong Jin asked in a slowed voice. He glanced at the diagram in Suri's hand.
The paper depicts two long iron plates, supported by vertical beams, and the two iron plates are linked together by an I-shaped iron frame, the bottom of the iron plate is flat, and the two ends are upturned, which looks very strange.
"What is this for?" Sikong Jin pointed to the picture and asked.
"If you want to go back to Beijing, you must use a carriage with your female dependents." Su Rui cleared his throat and said, "The wheels of ordinary carriages will get stuck in the ice and snow to increase the burden on the horses, and besides, the wind and snow are so big, the wheels are almost impossible to move an inch. β
Yes, Sikong Jin nodded, it is true.
"So I drew this diagram to get people to remodel the carriage." Seeing Sikong Jin nodding, Su Rui continued, "This is a sleigh board, and the principle is the same as the kind of bark we used when we went down the mountain. It's just that this kind of is very strong, and the area is relatively large, and it is very stable. The body removes the wheels, and you will not encounter the embarrassment of getting stuck when you travel in the snow with this sled. It will also save the horse's strength, and we will move much faster. β
Sikong Jin's eyes lit up after hearing this, yes, why didn't he think of it?
He had also been thinking about returning to Beijing, but because of Feng Ling'er's body, he had to delay. Once something goes wrong with the car on the road, everyone else is fine, but Feng Ling'er can't stand that crime.
If you modify the carriage to look like this, you can really slide quickly on the snow without getting stuck in the snow. He looked at Suri with surprise and delight, she had solved a big problem for herself.
Why does she always have endless ideas to surprise herself?
"That's very good, you just go down and do it." Sikong Jin said with a smile, he waved his hand to let the others disperse, and seeing that there was no one around, he held Su Rui's hand.
Su Rui struggled for a while, but he was too tight, so he had to give up.
"Have you eaten?" Sikong Jin asked.
"Yes." Suri nodded, two roasted sweet potatoes.
"Then accompany the king to eat a little more." Sikong Jin grabbed Su Rui and didn't let her escape, and dragged her into the room.
Sikong Jin had already prepared a steaming meal in his room, he pulled Su Rui to sit down, and ordered someone to fill a pair of chopsticks for Su Rui as well.
"How did you come up with such a sled?" Sikong Jin asked as he poured her a cup of hot tea.
The stables were outside, her hands were frozen and cold, and a cup of hot tea was just right to warm up. Her little face was also red from the cold, and there seemed to be some traces of ice and snow on the tip of her nose, which looked very playful.
Sikong Jin took a closer look at Su Rui, and realized that her eyebrows were really beautiful, if it weren't for the scar on her forehead, she would be a full beauty embryo, she was dressed very plainly on weekdays, but she couldn't hide her outstanding temperament. Why did I always look at her in various ways before?
The more I watch it now, the more I like it.
Sikong Jin couldn't help but stretch out his finger and scratch the little bit of ice and snow on the tip of her nose.
Su Rui trembled, this action was too ambiguous. She looked at Sikong Jin a little suspiciously, what does this man mean?
Can he take care of Feng Ling'er without sleeping, and then pull himself to eat with him?
Seriously, she would rather he still be cold to her as usual, even evil deeds, so that she would be more at ease, and now that he showed a little tenderness, it would mess her heart.
"What do you want to do with this king?" Sikong Jin laughed sullenly, "Could it be that flowers have grown on this king's face?" β
The flower is not as good-looking as the man in front of her, but the more beautiful it is, the more uncomfortable Su Rui's heart becomes.
She sighed faintly, "You decided to take care of Feng Ling'er in the future?" β
"Yes. This is the king's promise to the Eight Emperor Brothers. Sikong Jin restrained the smile on his face and nodded, "But I don't want you to misunderstand, as I said before, take care of her only as if she was my imperial sister-in-law." β
Su Rui's heart moved slightly, Sikong Jin said very sincerely, he didn't mean to lie to himself at all, and he didn't need to deceive.
Is it to believe in him and try to get along with him? Su Rui hesitated and couldn't make up his mind.
"What? Because I take care of Feng Ling'er, are you jealous? Sikong Jin asked rhetorically, a hint of playfulness crossed in his eyes.
"I'm not sure if I'm jealous." Su Rui looked at Sikong Jin's eyes very honestly, and said slowly, "I won't say a lot of civet fox whistles." I've never been in a relationship. I wish my husband would have me in his heart, but since I married Hu Guohe, I know that it is a luxury. So I snuffed out that thought on the first day we got married. But you have now given me hope, and my affection for you is an adventure. If it succeeds, we will love each other for the rest of our lives, and if it fails, I'm afraid I can't afford it. β
Su Rui's honesty made Sikong Jin's heart ripple greatly, her eyes were orange and clear, and her tone was flat and calm, but it was very moving.
It's the first time a woman can say how she feels in this way.
She's really different.
Sikong Jin couldn't help but hold Su Rui's hands, "Trust me, okay?" He whispered as he stared into her eyes.
"I want to, too." Su Rui's nose was slightly sour, "But can you give me a promise?" β
"Yes. What do you want? Sikong Jin asked.
"If you no longer have me in your heart, doubt me, or even hate me, then please let me go." Suri thought for a moment and said. "If you agree to this condition, I will try to open my heart to accept you and love you without reservation."
"Okay." Sikong Jin was silent for a long time, and finally nodded cautiously.
"It's not the same agreement we signed where we got married!" Su Rui was afraid that Sikong Jin would regret it like last time, "What I said is true." β
"I really agreed." Sikong Jin nodded, he remembered the contract made at the beginning of the marriage, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips.
At that time, the two of them were like black-eyed chickens, and they were really naΓ―ve.
But if it hadn't been for that time, maybe they wouldn't be like this now.
"Really?" Suri asked.
"No repentance." Sikong Jin untied a piece of jade pendant hanging from his waist, "This jade pendant has been with me for many years." It was given to me by my father when I was young. I will hand it over to you, and make a covenant that if the situation you said really arises in the future, you only need to return this jade pendant to me, and I will let you go wherever we are! β
"Good. Deal. Su Rui took the jade pendant and carefully received it in his arms.
After putting it away, she smiled and swept away the gloom in her heart.
She will let go of the courage to love once, maybe she will be hurt, maybe the result may not be good, but it is not a thing to always hesitate like this. It's always going to be solved! She always had to take a step.
But this is not the modern age, if two people end up with bad results and cannot divorce. So she needs a guarantee. I didn't expect Sikong Jin to agree so readily.
